Tip of the Day
[edit]Tip of the moment...
 Fixing bare URLs to prevent link rot
Bare URLs used as article references (citations) are subject to link rot. The usability of a bare URL depends entirely on the target WWW site retaining its chosen site structure, which it is under no obligation to do. A full citation, in contrast, gives the author, title, publisher, publication, and date of the work. So, if the web site address changes, the additional information may assist in finding the new location. If the source is no longer available on the internet, then the additional information may assist in tracking down the source if it is in printed form, microfiche archives, article/paper collections, published as books, and the like. Fully dressed citations may be filled in manually, or there are semi-automated tools online, such as: reFILL (can be installed as a Toolbox link or as a Bookmarklet), or Yadkard. For Google Books, try the: Wikipedia Citation Tool for Google Books. – – To add this auto-randomizing template to your user page, use {{totd-random}}

Special:MyPage is a special link that is dynamically linked to the current user's userpage. So, whoever clicks on it will be taken to their own user page. If you add a subpage to the link, then only you will be taken to your subpage of that name. Other users will be taken to the subpage of that name in their namespace (if it exists). This makes the link "private" by only letting the correct user get to the page via that link. Other users will diverted to their own userspace. The code However, this only makes the link private, not the page itself. Others can still get to it via the search box or by creating a new link with its entire title. – – Read more: To add this auto-updating template to your user page, use {{totd-tomorrow}}
